Water Resources Engin&Sustain

Methods for sustaining natural hydrologic conditions and controlling flooding in land development. Characteristics of precipitation and watersheds. Peak discharge, hydrograph and flood routing prediction. Design of drainage structures, detention ponds, and innovative water management techniques. Prerequisites: CE-ENGIN 270, CE-ENGIN 357

Design of Steel Structures

Introduction to the principles and procedures of structural steel design and behavior. Using current design methodology and specifications, various types of steel structural members and connections are designed. Included are design of beams, compression members; beam-columns, tension members, bolted connections, and welded connections. This course, taken with CE-Engin 488, satisfies the Integrative Experience requirement for BS-CE majors.

Foundation Engineering

To gain proficiency in the geotechnical design of shallow and deep foundations, using bearing capacity and settlement and structural and performance design criteria, respectively; to learn site characterization procedures including sampling and in situ testing to determine design parameters. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 320.

Pedestrians and Bicyclists

This course covers operations and safety topics related to bicycle and pedestrian transportation. Bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure treatments, complete streets, and the impacts of such designs and practices on operations and safety are studied. In addition, this course includes topics related to multimodal signal control and level of service as well as the connection between bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure with physical activity and overall health outcomes. Discussion on how bicycling and walking are accounted for in decision-making is also included.

Traffic Engineering

Fundamental principles of traffic flow and intersection traffic operations including traffic data collection methods, traffic control devices, traffic signal design, and analysis techniques. Emphasizes quantitative and computerized techniques for designing and optimizing intersection signalization. Several traffic engineering software packages used. Prerequisites: CE-ENGIN 310
